History of 20th century ppt
The document contrasts aspects of Victorian literature with modern literature, noting shifts from acceptance to rejection of forms, from superficiality to meaninglessness, and from easier to more complex works. It also lists contrasts between views of men and different philosophies in the eras, tracing the development from modernism after World War I to postmodernism emerging around World War II with questioning of universal truths and focus on individual truths. Key modern literary movements are also listed.
The Love Song Of J. Alfred Prufrock
The document provides biographical information about T.S. Eliot and contextualizes his modernist poem "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock". It notes that Eliot was an American-English poet born in Missouri who lived much of his life in London. The poem is considered one of the most influential works of the 20th century. Modernism emerged in response to World War I and Victorian ideals, featuring experimental styles and questioning social norms. "The Love Song" examines the emptiness of the social world through Prufrock's self-analysis and is a prime example of modernist poetry through its fragmented form and themes.
Ecocriticism and Postcolonial Studies
This document discusses ecocriticism and its connection to postcolonial studies. Ecocriticism examines the relationship between literature and the physical environment, similarly to how feminist criticism examines language through a gender lens. Postcolonial ecocriticism recognizes the non-human victims of colonialism and emphasizes environmental justice and cultural sustainability. Studying ecocriticism is important as it allows us to analyze how authors represent nature and environmental issues in their works. Religions have contributed to forest protection through traditions of sacred groves and environmental organizations with religious motivations.
Use of Symbolism in "The Waste land”
This document provides an analysis of the symbols and symbolism used in T.S. Eliot's modernist poem "The Waste Land". It discusses common symbols like the Fisher King, water, religion, drought, characters, cities, rivers, landscapes, thunder, and seasons. The analysis examines how these symbols are used to represent themes of death, birth, solace, cleansing, and relief. It also briefly summarizes the views of critics like I.A. Richards and Cleanth Brooks on the religious nature and message of the poem.
Macflecknoe or a satyr upon the trew blue-protestant poet
:-“Mac Flecknoe; or, A satyr upon the True-Blew-Protestant Poet, T.S.” was a lampoon by John Dryden against the poet laureate Thomas Shadwell who superseded him in 1669.
Mac means ‘son of’. So, MacFlecknoe means ‘Son of Flecknoe’, while the word ‘True-Blew’ means an extreme ‘Whig Blue’ which was the colour of the Tories.
Richard Flecknoe (c. 1600 – 1678) was an English dramatist and poet. His works were praised by some critics and derided by others. Why John Dryden used his name to ridicule and satirize Thomas Shadwell, his contemporary and one time friend who later became an enemy, is not clear. Flecknoe was a minor poet having religious inclinations and most of his writings were private writings. So, Dryden calling him ‘the monarch of absolute nonsense’ was similar to Iago’s ‘motive hunting of a motiveless malignity’. Thomas Shadwell was called the ‘son and successor’ of Flecknoe’.

archetypal criticism by nortrope frye
Northrop Frye was a 20th century Canadian literary critic who developed a theory of archetypal criticism. He believed that recurring myths and archetypes could be identified across different works of literature. Frye identified four main archetypes - spring/dawn, summer/zenith, autumn/sunset, and winter/darkness - that correspond to phases of the solar cycle. Each archetype is associated with certain myths, characters, and genres of literature. Frye aimed to develop a systematic and scientific approach to literary criticism based on analyzing recurring archetypes and myths.
The Feed
The poem "THE FEED" by Ahmed Nadeem Qasimi describes a mother sparrow feeding her tiny young ones. In the first stanza, the mother sparrow returns to the nest holding a single grain of millet in her beak to feed her chicks. The second stanza shows the mother's dilemma as her chicks all join their beaks together, begging to be fed first. She splits the single grain among all ten chicks to feed them judiciously and equally. The poem illustrates a mother's selfless love and care for her offspring.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems
9
Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

- 7. “Ulysses” represent of Victorian Period by Tennyson The Victorian era is well-known for its enrichment of knowledge, extension of empire and growth of economy. The age had a spirit of activity. In the famous poem “Ulysses” Tennyson reflects this spirit of the people of Victorian society. In this poem we notice that Ulysses has spent twenty years of his life in battles and adventure. He has seen and learnt many things, yet he is not satisfied. He was thirst for knowledge and therefore He comments, “How dull it is to pause, to make an end, “To rust unfurnished, not to shine in use !” His Victorian spirit is fully reflected when he says that even in old age his ambition is “To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.”
- 8. Reflection of Victorian age in the poem of ‘Lotus eaters’ by Tennyson. The People of Victorian age felt tired with their never ending race. They expected a life of settled order, stability and peace. Tennyson reflects this trend in the poem “The Lotus-Eaters”. Here we see that after reaching the lotus island and eating lotus fruits, the mariners are fascinated by the keep and quiet environment of the island. Although they have a long way to go to reach their homeland, but they don’t want to travel or struggle any more. They plan to live in this island in a state of permanent rest and peace. That’s how Tennyson reflects Victorian age in his works.
